Douluo Dalu 3: The Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 1971: Divine Brush

Furthermore, Gu Yuena possessed the Dragon God's core.

She was unable to fully integrate herself with the Dragon God's core as she would have to fuse as one with Tang Wulin first, but the Dragon God's core contained a vast amount of energy, all of which was at her disposal.

Not only could it drastically accelerate her energy recovery, it could also greatly enhance her powers, so all of the Great Beasts thought that Tang Wulin would be no match for her.

However, only as Tang Wulin began drawing upon the power of the Eternal Tree in the distance did they realize that they may have made an error in judgment.

This was the Douluo Continent, and as the grandson of the planar ruler and core of life, Tang Wulin most likely wasn't at any disadvantage compared with Gu Yuena when it came to energy recovery.

As such, the outcome of his battle against Gu Yuena suddenly wasn't as much of a sure thing.

With that in mind, Di Tian was even more convinced that Gu Yuena had the right decision to wear down Tang Wulin through these two battles first. As a result, her chances of securing victory would be greatly improved in the final showdown.

The outcome that he wanted to see the most was for Gu Yuena to kill Tang Wulin and devour his Golden Dragon King energy so that she could fuse with the Dragon God's core. Once that happened, the Dragon God would be resurrected, and creating a Divine Realm would become a simple task.

In fact, with the power of the Dragon God, she could even potentially devour the entire Douluo Continent.

In the absence of Tang San and the Divine Realm, who could prevent the return of the Dragon God?

The issue with Gu Yuena was that as the Silver Dragon King, she had inherited not just the Dragon God's elemental control abilities, but also the Dragon God's positive emotions. As a result, she was too kind, and this was reflected by the fact that she hadn't ever killed any humans aside from Evil Soul Masters.

What Di Tian was most concerned about was whether Gu Yuena would be able to bring herself to land the killing blow on Tang Wulin.

The seven Limit Douluos could naturally sense that Tang Wulin was recovering his energy, and with their extensive battle experience, they knew that they couldn't simply allow Tang Wulin to do as he pleased.

Thus, the seven of them immediately lashed out without any hesitation.

Yu Guanzhi raised his right hand, and a huge white brush that was around 1.2 meters in length appeared in his grasp. At the same time, nine soul rings emerged from beneath his feet.

Even in the battle against the abyssal plane, Yu Guanzhi had refrained from appearing in battle, yet now, he was facing Tang Wulin.

He swept his giant brush through the air, and a red bird was drawn by the brush in the blink of an eye.

In the next instant, a clear phoenix cry rang out, and the bird sprang to life before pouncing directly toward Tang Wulin.

During its flight, the bird expanded further and further, transforming into a massive phoenix in mere moments.

Manifesting living beings through artwork was Yu Guanzhi's ability, and it was an extremely rare one in the Soul Master world.

Even back when he was only just beginning to establish himself, he had already been touted as one of the most powerful assault system Soul Masters.

With his Divine Brush, he was able to manifest all types of creatures that possessed energy of all elements. Aside from the fact that the ability was rather taxing to use, there were virtually no downsides.

Of course, his main weakness lied in melee combat, placing him at an inherent disadvantage against agility attack system Soul Masters, but when it came to long-range combat or controlling a battlefield, his powers were unmatched.

Otherwise, there was no way he would've inherited the position of leader of such a prominent family.

The phoenix arrived, and a dragon's roar rang out from Tang Wulin's body. Immediately thereafter, a golden dragon erupted forth, pouncing directly toward the phoenix, and the two instantly engaged in a fierce battle. The golden dragon was none other than Goldsong, and it had benefitted significantly in terms of its evolution with Tang Wulin's breakthrough to the true god level.

It wasn't at the godly level itself yet, but its combat prowess was not inferior to that of the average Limit Douluo, and it was currently looking completely identical to a true giant golden dragon.

It was completely fearless in the face of the phoenix's scorching flames, and not long after their clash commenced, the phoenix had already dimmed significantly.

Meanwhile, the other six Limit Douluos had also sprung into action.

For powerful beings of their caliber, a distance of a few kilometers could be covered in the blink of an eye. Yuanen Zhentian and Yuanen Tiandang led from the very forefront, charging toward Tang Wulin while unleashing their Divine Titan Fists.

Their Divine Titan Fists wasn't as versatile as Yuanen Yehui's Divine Titan Fists, which had been integrated with her Divine Cloudvortex Fists, but it was more pure and imbued with devastating power. Their fists were like giant hammers that sealed off all avenues for evasion, forcing Tang Wulin to fight fire with fire.

Tang Wulin's eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing this. He knew that this was going to be a direct clash, and he had no intention of trying to avoid it. In retaliation, he also launched both fists forward, unleashing an ability that he hadn't used in many years.

This was his Golden Dragon Shocks the Heavens, and it was the very first of the Nine Arts of the Scarlet Dragon that Zhuo Shi had taught him. Back in his early years in Shrek Academy, Tang Wulin had frequently made use of this technique.

Thus, a fierce clash took place amid a thunderous dragon's roar, and a devastating storm of energy erupted forth, forcing the oncoming Limit Douluos to stop in their tracks.

Yuanen Zhentian and Yuanen Tiandang were both sent flying, while Tang Wulin remained completely still on the spot.

All of a sudden, he raised his right hand before flicking his index finger through the air, upon which a crisp clang abruptly rang out.

A virtually invisible needle-shaped burst of five-colored energy had just struck the claw on his index finger, and the burst of energy quickly shattered following the clash. This was none other than Tong Yu's Five-elemental Divine Arrow, and back during the Trial of Five Gods, this attack had posed a severe threat to Tang Wulin.

Even now, the attack had still given him quite a fright.

In contrast with its past form, this Five-elemental Divine Arrow had become a lot more discrete, and it was virtually undetectable. If it weren't for his powerful divine sense, he wouldn't most likely also failed to detect it.

Right at this moment, a spear crossed through the sky, instantly reaching Tang Wulin with tremendous power.

Tang Wulin immediately summoned his Golden Dragon Spear, then took a half step backward with his left foot before cautiously flicking his spear upward.

Another crisp clang rang out as the Sky Crossing Divine Spear was sent flying upward, but in the next instant, a vast expanse of space around Tang Wulin collapsed.

Immediately thereafter, he vanished on the spot, and when he reappeared, he found himself surrounded by the seven Limit Douluos.

Far away in the Shrek Academy camp, a stunned look appeared on Chen Xinjie's face upon seeing this. "That's an attack of the godly level!"

Indeed, Guan Yue's spear strike really had reached the godly level, and it had forcibly teleported Tang Wulin right into the circle of Limit Douluos.

Due to how abruptly this had happened, Tang Wulin had no chance to resist.

In the face of this unexpected turn of events, Gu Yuena remained completely expressionless.

She was naturally aware that Guan Yue was at the godly level. In fact, the amount of divine sense required to control him exceeded the amount that was required to control the other six Limit Douluos combined.

Following Guan Yue's resurrection, he was pleasantly surprised to find that feeling he had derived from attaining that instant of godhood had lingered in his mind.

In contrast with Tang Wulin, his body hadn't reached the godly level, but his soul power made the breakthrough. It wasn't as complete a breakthrough as Tang Wulin's, but it was still a fundamental improvement.
